Joining one of the most high-performing academies in the world will represent a unique opportunity for them: benefitting from an ideal training and learning environment, from outstanding support and supervision, and from the chance to play alongside the professional football team – a source of inspiration and emulation.

A LIVING AND WORKING SPACE
The youth academy plateau will feature three main areas and buildings, in which talented young footballers will live and go about their daily duties:
- the first will focus on the sporting side (fitness rooms and recovery areas, a medical treatment room, administrative offices and meeting rooms);
- the second is where the players will be educated (classrooms, a computer room, a laboratory, a documentation and information centre, a staff room, living areas, nursing station, etc.). As for the younger academy players, they will be able to receive schooling in the collèges in neighbouring towns;
